Mar 22, 2023 at 22:52 comment added Peter - Reinstate Monica "dealing with large number of students doing very badly at an exam is not nice" is true; a mitigation measure would be to have an in-person test on the first homework stuff early on (after, say, the first two weeks), give the ones who fail one more chance and eliminate all that fail that one as well. Obviously, announce that in the beginning, and the reason why. Failing early is much better than failing at the end.

Mar 22, 2023 at 16:37 comment added J Fabian Meier @DanielR.Collins I never had much problems with cheating when teaching maths students (different with other students).
Mar 22, 2023 at 14:36 comment added Daniel R. Collins Some good thoughts, but eek @ "You don't allow X, but you don't put much effort in enforcing this." IME at the places I've taught this is a complete non-starter. Either X is enforced (and enforceable) or rampant and public violations will be occurring all the time.
